Hello beloveds and baddies! As you may already know, I help people raise money to fund the revolution. I have started a Skool community to share songs and meditations and create anticapitalist business and thriving finances to fund the revolution. Link is below, so feel free to scroll and sign up or share with beloveds if you have already heard this message. Also please feel free to share with others as you feel inspired to do so. This movement space I am creating is a partial response to Audre Lorde’s now famous quote about caring for oneself not being self-indulgence. “I had to examine, in my dreams as well as in my immune-function tests, the devastating effects of overextension. Overextending myself is not stretching myself. I had to accept how difficult it is to monitor the difference. Necessary for me as cutting down on sugar. Crucial. Physically. Psychically. Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” This quote and this work is an essential piece of my own journey, and my question for many years now that I have been asking again and again: “How do I get free? How do you get free? How do we get free? What does freedom look like? Sound like? Taste like? Feel like? Smell like?” And the questions have led me to studying medical journals, poetry, prose, dance, learning and singing songs, expanding my ancestor and altar practices, and making art and money and love and caring for babies and and and. As many of you may know, there are medical journals that tell the story of how enslaved Africans were worked until their muscles tore from their bones, and then worked until they died, with those muscles separated the whole time. It’s enraging. Infuriating. Overwhelming. How do we get free in the midst of that kind of brutality? Harriet Tubman escaped seven times. Seven times. Because she went back and got people free. But also because she was building a network of allies and accomplices who could hide Black escaped folks and feed and clothe them and give them extra food for the journey.

I learned this song from Wendy Moore O’Nesl, who saw the light in me and tended to it in a workshop I took from her during the 2020 shut down (or the 2021 shut down?) and I am so grateful to those who have shone their light in all the times when I am down in the valley, just tryna get home.

I hope you can hear the rain. ☔️🌧️🎶 #Rain #RainMusic #Meditation
